{"product_id":"woman-life-freedom-halasa-malu-9780863569722","title":"Woman Life Freedom: Voices and Art from the Women's Protests in Iran","description":"Jina Mahsa Amini's death at the hands of Iran's Morality Police on 16 September 2022 sparked widespread protests across the country. Women took to the streets, uncovering their hair, burning headscarves and chanting '\u003ci\u003eWoman Life Freedom' - 'Zan Zendegi Azadi' \u003c\/i\u003ein Persian and \u003ci\u003e'Jin Jîyan Azadî' \u003c\/i\u003ein Kurdish - in mass demonstrations. An explosion of creative resistance followed as art and photography shared online went viral and people around the world saw what was really going on in Iran. \u003ci\u003eWoman Life Freedom\u003c\/i\u003e captures this historic moment in artwork and first-person accounts. This striking collection goes behind the scenes at forbidden fashion shows; records the sound of dissent in Iran where it is illegal for women to sing unaccompanied in public; and walks the streets of Tehran with '\u003ci\u003eThe Smarties\u003c\/i\u003e' - Gen Z women who colour and show their hair in defiance of the authorities, despite the potentially devastating consequences. Extolling the power of art, writing and body politics - both female and queer - this collection is a universal rallying call and a celebration of the women the regime has tried and failed to silence. This is what protest looks like.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Malu Halasa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0863569722\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780863569722\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Saqi Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.30w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/18\/2023","brand":"Malu Halasa","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44202060153087,"sku":"9780863569722","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d21351e6-a894-4073-89c0-81476096ecfc.jpg?v=1691492993","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/woman-life-freedom-halasa-malu-9780863569722","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
